Frank Reyes

Frank Reyes, the Dominican singer blending bachata and merengue, broke through when Sony issued his album Estelares de Frank Reyes on September 2, 1997. Bachata's prince, he earned a Casandra award, recognized as a major local distinction, and gained a nomination from Acroarte, the Dominican art journalists association, in the category of best Bachata performer. Following the 1998 release of Vine a Decirte Adios, the tropical artist resurfaced in 1999 with Extraño Mi Pueblo, which he co-produced with Rafael Núñez, before stepping into the new millennium via Amor en Silencio.
